Modulation of the Progenitor Cell and Homeostatic Capacities of Müller Glia Cells in Retina. Focus on α2-Adrenergic and Endothelin Receptor Signaling Systems. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1201. 73 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-554-9527-5. Müller cells are major glial cells in the retina and have a broad range of functions that are vital for the retinal neurons. During retinal injury gliotic response either leads to Müller cell dedifferentiation and formation of a retinal progenitor or to maintenance of mature Müller cell functions. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the intra- and extracellular signaling of Müller cells, to understand how Müller cells communicate during an injury and how their properties can be regulated after injury. Focus has been on the α2-adrenergic receptor (α2-ADR) and endothelin receptor (EDNR)-induced modulation of Müller cell-properties after injury. -

A Shared Molecular Mechanism Underlies the Human Rasopathies Legius Syndrome and Neurofibromatosis-1

Understanding the Genetic Basis of Phenotype Variability in Individuals with Neurocognitive Disorders
Understanding the genetic basis of phenotype variability in individuals with neurocognitive disorders Michael H. Duyzend A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee: Evan E. Eichler, Chair Raphael Bernier Philip Green Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Genome Sciences 1 ©Copyright 2016 Michael H. Duyzend 2 University of Washington Abstract Understanding the genetic basis of phenotype variability in individuals with neurocognitive disorders Michael H. Duyzend Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Evan E. Eichler Department of Genome Sciences Individuals with a diagnosis of a neurocognitive disorder, such as an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), can present with a wide range of phenotypes. Some have severe language and cognitive deficiencies while others are only deficient in social functioning. Sequencing studies have revealed extreme locus heterogeneity underlying the ASDs. Even cases with a known pathogenic variant, such as the 16p11.2 CNV, can be associated with phenotypic heterogeneity. In this thesis, I test the hypothesis that phenotypic heterogeneity observed in populations with a known pathogenic variant, such as the 16p11.2 CNV as well as that associated with the ASDs in general, is due to additional genetic factors. I analyze the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of over 120 families where at least one individual carries the 16p11.2 CNV, as well as a cohort of over 40 families with high functioning autism and/or intellectual disability. In the 16p11.2 cohort, I assessed variation both internal to and external to the CNV critical region. Among de novo cases, I found a strong maternal bias for the origin of deletions (59/66, 89.4% of cases, p=2.38x10-11), the strongest such effect so far observed for a CNV associated with a microdeletion syndrome, a significant maternal transmission bias for secondary deletions (32 maternal versus 14 paternal, p=1.14x10-2), and nine probands carrying additional CNVs disrupting autism-associated genes. -

Jänne 1 , 3 ,5 , 7 ABSTRACT The clinical effi cacy of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase inhibitors is limited by the development of drug resistance. The irreversible EGFR kinase inhibitor WZ4002 is effective against the most common mechanism of drug resistance mediated by the EGFR T790M mutation. Here, we show, in multiple complementary models, that resistance to WZ4002 develops through aberrant activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling caused by either an amplifi cation of mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1 ) or by downregulation of negative regulators of ERK signaling. Inhibition of MAP–ERK kinase (MEK) or ERK restores sensitivity to WZ4002 and prevents the emergence of drug resistance. We further identify MAPK1 amplifi cation in an erlotinib- resistant EGFR -mutant non–small cell lung carcinoma patient. In addition, the WZ4002-resistant MAPK1 - amplifi ed cells also show an increase both in EGFR internalization and a decrease in sensitivity to cytotoxic chemotherapy.
